Engel testified already. He was avaible to ask his side of this if the committee cared to ask.

What does that say about the Hutchinson testimony today? That was from almost a week ago.

I love how one thing is enough to nullify everything (regarding testimony) yet we've had to deal with this mfer and his family, who speak out of both sides of their mouths all day long, and we're supposed to take ALL of it as the honest truth (whichever narrative fits).

We don't know any of that though. We don't even know when they found out what Hutchinson had to say. We don't know if they were or weren't asked to corroborate. Remember that she switched lawyers just a few weeks ago. This could be very new. Like I don't trust anyone in this situation, but until we know what was asked of people and when, it's all speculation. I would hope the committee will be putting together a full report at the end that has everyone's testimony. |

The part that really matters, Trump wanting to go to the Capitol and the Secret Service refusing to let him, has been corroborated by Trump himself.

We certainly don't know. The problem is, whether the committee knows has been called into question. But time will tell. These aren't just anonymous sources denying her testimony. Supposedly they are willing to testify so we'll have both sides eventually. Again, the issue is the committee likely not having both sides before they put her up there.

My emphasis was on the fact that they weren't just denying it, they are saying the two people involved in the story will testify to the contrary. That's different than someone just reporting that she's lying.

I keep hearing a lot of people talking about the secret service driver allegedly refuting the assault claim. Lots of people saying he should testify under oath that it didn't happen, as if no one has ever lied under oath.

Exactly, the SCOTUS appointees pretty much made it clear that the oath is meaningless, pretty sure a ruling will follow that protects people that do.

Yes you had Gohmert complaining in an interview recently that Republicans couldn't even lie to the FBI and Congress anymore. And that's the point, people in public trust need to be held accountable when they lie under oath like the supreme court justices.
Reports are that the secret service driver is pretty loyal to Trump, the king of lying. So get him under oath about it so its on the record. The Jan 6 committee is under oath, so they too should be held accountable if they lie about what they found or try to hide some of it.

One thing we assume is that they know what the weird hypocrisy is and that that really is a thing. Perhaps we’re missing the foundation that they actually know these things.
Or maybe it’s all faux outrage hiding a long plan of creating a theocracy but can’t use that word so you just get rid of the words or project them on your opponents ask the whole executing the long plan of creating a Christian theocracy and once we’re there they’ll say,” jeez, how did we get here!? But…. Since we’re here either join us or leave.” Muwahahahahah Bible. Sin. Gays. Guns. Love. You’re forgiven!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is apparent video evidence that shows that at the very least, he lunged over the driver's shoulder to keep the car from leaving, rather than steer it while it was moving.

I hear a lot of voices on the right claiming the committee is biased and they aren’t allowing other points of view or counter arguments. What could the other view possible be? All I hear from them is it wasn’t “as bad” as the left claims. It was mostly peaceful. Conspiracy theories about Antifa. Despite all the evidence to the contrary. Countless hours of video showing angry white men bearinf cops and trashing the capitol. They claim it was peaceful despite a gallows being erected and then chanting hang Mike pence.
I just can’t fathom what the counter point of view is that could possibly refute the video evidence. Audio recordings. Cell phone evidence. Text messages. |

There isn't any. That's the real answer. The reason they believe that is because it's easier to believe that than it is to believe that their beliefs are wrong. That's the power of faith in its truest form.

Almost a year ago, Pelosi blocked two of his picks, Banks and Jordan from the committee, and so McCarthy pulled all Republicans from it, and said at the time maybe we will have our own hearing. Anybody hear about that again? That's who the Trumpsters who have been complaining about bias. should be complaining to. Demand that they produce evidence that Antifa, BLM, or the FBI were behind it all. But no the Democrats are the corrupts one here because Trump clearly won the election. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/kevin-m...dan-jim-banks/ I hope at the end of the hearing if they don't state it themselves, reporters ask them about any evidence of those groups either being involved or that any of the loudest shouters like Gaetz came to the Committee with actual evidence. Like to see Liz Cheney address that.

Even if Jim Jordan was on the committee, which I agree his whole purpose would be to muck everything up, what would his argument be for the "other side?"
Who could we possibly hear testimony from refuting what happened when we see it all with our own eyes? I just don't see how having a Jordan or MTG on this committee alters the actual facts and evidence that clearly backs them up. |

I think if the right extremists took a play from trump's playbook and just tossed him under the bus, and if the person who called for it and made it happen, had similar credentials as him, like DeSantis or Abbot, they could get rid of their albatross, and double down on their methods in one fell swoop and get momentum before fall.

This was only after the original version of a bipartisan committee was rejected by McCarthy. Presumably, with more sane people on a committee, the GOP would have had a chance to do something more than tweet emojis during testimony. The current committee only happened because the original agreed committee was rejected by McCarthy under pressure.

Jan 6 committee got who they wanted to testify at last-don't know the details yet, but Pat Cippolini has agreed to testify.
In other news Lindsay Graham refuses to testify to the GA Grand jury using the same argument that Trump was never successful with it, "its all political"

I would think that if he's on the record, and he was on the record from other witnesses saying that what trump was cooking up was illegal, that he's prepared to testify to a very thin line of things that directly involved him. He was WH counsel, not trump counsel, meaning he was repping the title and position and protecting the office, not specifically 45.

There's apparently more documentary footage from a crew that was following Roger Stone and possibly other Stop the Steal leaders.
These fuckers were convinced they were going to win and needed propaganda films to help establish their right to rule.

If trump or some trump lite candidate wins in 24 you can pretty much guarantee (based on previous actions) that any and all penalties will be wiped clean, and those that sought those punishments will be sent to the salt mines of Kessel or Utah. One or the other.
